Did anything ever happen between us?
I don’t think either of us know.
Which probably means something did
I can’t read your mind
Unless you spill it out for me
Why are guys so stupid?
I guess they are as stupid as girls are
With your frills
Fishing for compliments
Covered in fish guts,
Pretending they were yours
So you didn’t have to open
Up as much as you wished
You could
I steered clear of that pond and pool often
Lakes of women never really were my scene
I never tried to impress anyone
You were always beautiful
It was so stuck far down inside of me
That it was hard to say
My heart knew it
And I felt it constantly
Sorry it’s so hard to get out sometimes
Sorry I never cut the crap with you,
Or my heart out of my chest to show
You all that I really felt for you.
I had always wanted to
We are not lost,
Only finding our way
Neither of us are stupid
